Aussie Breakfast by judygal

I just had to take a photo of my bacon and Aussie egg the other day in the frypan, and try to make it look like it was on a plate. Just for fun.

Orange Delight by amarica

An orange—specifically, the sweet orange—is the citrus fruit Citrus sinensis (syn. Citrus aurantium L. var. dulcis L., or Citrus aurantium Risso) and its fruit. The orange is a hybrid of ancient cultivated origin, possibly between pomelo (Citrus maxima) and tangerine (Citrus reticulata). It is a small flowering tree growing to about 10 m tall with evergreen leaves, which are arranged alternately, of ovate shape with crenulate margins and 4–10 cm long. The orange fruit is a hesperidium, a type of berry. Oranges originated in Southeast Asia. The fruit of Citrus sinensis is called sweet orange to distinguish it from Citrus aurantium, the bitter orange. In a number of languages, it is known as a “Chinese apple” (e.g. Dutch Sinaasappel, “China’s apple”, or “Apfelsine” in German). The name is thought to ultimately derive from the Dravidian word for the orange tree, with its final form developing after passing through numerous intermediate languages. / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Created for the Sweet Taste of Oranges Challenge in the All Things Orange group Image as-is with no special treatment.

Haigh's chocolates by Elana Bailey

These are delightful Haigh’s chocolates. I think that they are the best in Australia and they were founded in Adelaide, South Australia. ‘The name Haigh’s has been synonymous with fine chocolates since 1915 and they are the oldest family-owned chocolate manufacturing retailer in Australia. There are six Haigh’s stores in Adelaide as well as five in Melbourne and one in Sydney.’ I dare you not to be tempted. This shot was taken with a Canon DSLR EOS 20D.
